To put it in very reductive terms, the leadership institute has had a major impact on my life. I now think of my professional life in terms of pre and post leadership institute. The institute helped me actualize some of my strengths and uncover my deficits. I was able to identify and solidify my leadership style (authentic and creative) which led me to adapt new ways and alter my existing management practices.
Maureen and Kathryn, two of the best educators in the field exposed me to the theories and philosophies of leadership which I found to be more than just concepts.
